Midterm piece

This piece was the piece for my Mid-term exam. Selected the two people, refine edge, made shadows for them. Cloned out the timestamp at the top left corner. Put the picture of the fire hydrant in, layer masked the background out. Added lady walking dog for extra credit.

Pop Art

During this assignment, I learned to use the Filters panel, the threshold option, the hard brushes, as well as making a new layer background copy for dodging and burning. I aadjusted the colors in black and white, applied a threshold, dodged and burned for detail, colored with a hard brush (creating a new layer for each color so that when the ben day dots were applied, they could be different) then I used the filter panel to apply ben day dots and other atristic effects to the bird lamp and the backgrround - what was originally a blank purple wall.

 

Pop Art Examples

Pop art is artistic movement that is influencd by popular culture or advertising. Bold colors, ben day dots, harsh lines and chaotic clashing are traits that pop art can take on, and well. The pictures I chose I like because each is significantly different than the others, they're all creative, and they all are pulled off very well.

Change My Look

^ The first image is of the celebrity. Mine is Jared Leto. I changed his hair color to a really dark purple and his eyes to a bright golden-orange color.

The second is of >   another student, Samantha. I took her picture, made her hair color orange, put her in a mansion, and gave her a tattoo and a hat.

The third image is of me, in front of a car. There was more done before, but it didn't save right.
